Ye Olde Chequers Inn is a timber-framed pub on Tonbridge High Street, just below the castle. The present building dates from the late 15th century and is often called one of the finest examples of a Kentish timber-framed building still standing. Inside it is a long bar with exposed beams and heavily leaded windows looking out onto the High Street. The pub offers home-cooked food, accommodation and regular entertainment, and hosts Tonbridge Folk Club on the first and third Mondays of the month.
